Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child

Em
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child,
Am Em
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child,
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child,
Am B7 Em
A long way from home.
Sometimes I wish I could fly like a bird up in the sky,
Sometimes I wish I could fly like a bird up in the sky,
Sometimes I wish I could fly like a bird up in the sky,
A little closer to home.
Motherless children have a hard time,
Motherless children have a hard time,
Motherless children have a hard time,
A long way from home.
Sometimes I feel like freedom is near,
Sometimes I feel like freedom is near,
Sometimes I feel like freedom is near,
But we're so far from home.
Sometimes I feel like the Kingdom is at hand,
Sometimes I feel like the Kingdom is at hand,
Sometimes I feel like the Kingdom is at hand,
But we're so far from home.
